THE WICCAN REDE
Bide the Wiccan
Laws we must In Perfect Love and Perfect Trust.
Live and let live. Fairly take and fairly give.
Cast the Circle thrice about to keep the evil spirits out.
To bind the spell every time let the spell be spake in rhyme.
Soft of eye and
light of touch, Speak little, listen much.
Deosil go by the waxing moon, chanting out the Witches' Rune.
Widdershins go by the waning moon, chanting out the baneful rune.
When the Lady's moon is new, kiss the hand to her, times two.
When the moon
rides at her peak, then your hearts desire seek.
Heed the North wind's mighty gale, lock the door and drop the
sail.
When the wind comes from the South, love will kiss thee on the
mouth.
When the wind blows from the West, departed souls will have no rest.
When the wind
blows from the East, expect the new and set the feast.
Nine woods in the cauldron go, burn them fast and burn them slow.
Elder be the Lady's tree, burn it not or cursed you'll be.
When the Wheel begins to turn, let the Beltane fires burn.
When the Wheel
has turned to Yule, light the log and the Horned One rules.
Heed ye flower, Bush and Tree, by the Lady, blessed be.
Where the rippling waters go, cast a stone and truth you'll know.
When ye have a true need, hearken not to others' greed.
With a fool no
season spend, lest ye be counted as his friend.
Merry meet and merry part, bright the cheeks and warm the heart.
Mind the Threefold Law you should, three times bad and three
times good.
When misfortune is enow, wear the blue star on thy brow.
True in love
ever be, lest thy lover's false to thee.
Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfill: An ye harm none, do what ye
will.
THE WITCHES' RUNE
Darksome night
and shining Moon, Hearken to the Witches' rune.
East then South, West then North, Hear! Come! I call Thee forth.
By all the
powers of land and sea, Be obedient unto me.
Wand and Pentacle and Sword, Hearken ye unto my word.
Cords and
Censer, Scourge and Knife, Waken all ye into life.
Powers of the Witches' Blade, Come ye as the charge is made.
Queen of Heaven,
Queen of Hell, Send your aid unto the spell.
Horned Hunter of the night, Work my will by magick rite.
By all the
powers of land and sea, As I do say, "So mote it be."
By all the might of Moon and Sun, As I do will, it shall be done.
